Who is holding it against you? Do what you want - but there is a reason why St Georges Day isn't as popular as St Patricks Day in Ireland.

I don't think most English people will care - even the ones who are C of E.

Saying that - before the reformation - St Georges Day was a massive day in the English calendar.

So we're in agreement it's a day to celebrate and be proud

Well, it makes a change from the usual rhetoric that its been banned for some reason - hope you find someone else to celebrate it.

Thought this thread was going to be about George Groves coming out of retirement.

[Gnome]

Happy St. George 's Day!

[Stobbo]

He was a turk wasn't he.

[banjo]

He was a turk wasn't he.

Yes, though St Patrick was born in Britain and St Andrew was born in Israel.

[banjo]

George was a massive liar though, he went round telling everyone he slayed a dragon, which have never actually existed.

[SticknMove]

Should be celebrated. I'm off to put bells on me ankles and put damp clothes on the rotating maypole that is a dryer line.

[Stobbo]

I've slayed one or two myself
Didn't know St Andrew was Israeli mind.
Every days a school day

Any excuse to get wankered is a good excuse.

Happy Saint George's Day indeed.

[Cyclops]

For the first time ever I'm down with it. Happy St. George's day, one and all! Beers for everybody!

BBC slags. Do a full part on the news about Ramadan and not a word about it being St. George’s day.

It’s political correctness gone mad

St George wouldn't be let in after Brexit

[Coco]

He was a turk wasn't he.

I think he was a Greek who went to work for the Romans. The dragon thing was supposed to happen in Africa. I think George is the saint of many countries! He wouldn't have voted for Brexit!
